To my sweet Malachi,
It has been a few days since you had to leave and I
love and miss you so much. You brought me so much
joy. As you grew inside of me, there were times I
thought you were going to kick my bladder out. I
couldn't laugh without running to the restroom and I
couldn't sleep without you doing what felt like
martial arts inside of me. When you were inside of me
I used to play a song for you before we would go to
sleep at night. Remember the words? "I receive it. I
receive life. I receive joy. I receive peace. I
receive all the things that you have for me and
now...now I can live." You are truly living right now
and you will live with Jesus forever. I will make
sure your memory lives on.
I had the opportunity to have you in my life for 3
days and I treasure every single moment I was given.
The days leading up to your birth, the doctors tried
to monitor you, but you kicked the monitor so hard
they kept having to start it over. I laughed to myself
because as small as you were, nobody could control
you. You proved to be a soldier and that's what you
are. When the doctor began delivering you, they told
me not to expect you to cry because of your age. Your
grandmommy told me not only were you crying, but you
came out breathing without any help and were swinging
that right fist as the nurses attempted to wrap you
up. They wrapped you up and you some how managed to
get that right fist back in the air to swing some
more. The fight in you reminds me of myself. They
brought you in to see me from a slight distance as
they continued to work on me and I noticed we both
were straining our necks to see each other. Again,
you had that right arm out, but this time it looked
like you were reaching in my direction. I got a
chance to hold your hand and your grip was so strong.
I got a chance to talk to you and everytime you heard
me you began kicking your legs. I even laid hands on
you and told you that you shall live and not die. You
are living. You had many people praying for you. Your
grandmommy and I had a chance to pray over the doctor
that was going to be doing your last procedure. When
we finished praying with him, the nursing staff had
tears in their eyes because they said nobody ever
offered to pray over the surgeon before surgery. Even
the nurses miss you. You have forever impacted the
lives of many and you will continue to do that.
Malachi, your first name was named after a prophet in
God's word and your middle name Ezekiel, was named
after a priest. You are royalty. You are my little
fighter and though you will be sleep in God's presence
for a little while, I know we will meet again in
Heaven. Your family loves you so much and they too
will see you again. We love you baby.
Love Mommy & Family

A big thanks from my heart to all of you who have left me encouraging words, left gifts for Malachi, lit candles or left a tribute. My son means the world to me and because I know I will get to hold him in Heaven, I am encouraged by his life. I will make it through because Jesus is strengthening me when I feel like giving up. I truly believe that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord Jesus. That is truly my hope. Thank you so much.
Four Candles for You
by Unknown
The first candle represents our grief.
The pain of losing you is intense.
It reminds us of the depth of our love for you.
This second candle represents our courage.
To confront our sorrow,
To comfort each other,
To change our lives.
This third candle we light in your memory.
For the times we laughed,
The times we cried,
The times we were angry with each other,
The silly things you did,
The caring and joy you gave us.
This fourth candle we light for our love.
We light this candle that your light will always shine.
As we enter this holiday season and share this night of remembrance
with our family and friends.
We cherish the special place in our hearts
that will always be reserved for you.
We thank you for the gift
your living brought to each of us.
We love you.
We remember you.
To Mommy From Heaven
by Sandra L. Garman
Mommy, don't cry, 'cause God is holding my hand
and telling me everything is OK.
Mommy, God said that I will never want for anything
and I will still feel your love all the way up here.
Mommy, you should see me,
I am running and playing with God's other children.
Mommy, guess who helps watch over us while we play?
They are God's Helping Angels!
Mommy, I'm not afraid, my grandpa and grandma are here.
They came to me when it was dark and held my hands;
then we went to God's bright light,
where Angels were singing.
Mommy, God said, If you feel sad, to remember this;
I'll be the gentle breeze that brushes your face,
the sun is my smile and the rain is me washing away your pain.
Mommy, I have to go now.
I send you all my love on the wings of an Angel.
Love from your child, to you Mommy.
Precious Malachi
They say there is a reason,
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason,
Will change the way I feel,
For no-one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles,
No-one knows how many times,
We have broken down and cried,
We want to tell you something,
So there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without.
Love so deep
Malachi I miss you honey. I think about how it would be to have you with me and it makes me smile. Your father and I are so sarcastic and have such a sense of humor, we know you would have been the same. I'm sad, but I'm ok with knowing I will get to hold you in Heaven. That is a reward that I hold on to daily. I love you.
Beautiful Boy xox
This is a beautiful memorial to Malachi. I'm a believer too and I wish and pray for strength and courage for your mummy and daddy xoxoxoxox
Loving you
I just want to say that I love and miss you. You've been in heaven for 8 months and it feels sometimes like it was yesterday. When you left, I found out who the real and the fake were. It wont change me though. I love you baby. Tell auntie hello.
Your Messenger, Your Angel

I love you!!
Little Mr. Man it's been oh so long since I have came to say Hi. I think I love you more each day. After all we share the same day you are soooooooo loved Your mommy is the best thing that has ever happened to me and as My promise to you Your Memory will live on Forever your life is Not In Vain I love you Nephew!!!!! I could not ask for someone more special to watch over MY Jeremiah
I read your tribute to your son and it really touched my heart. As a mother I do understand the love that we have for our children. I want you to know that your son really loves you and he held on for you because he knew that you at least needed to see him before he went home to be with Jesus. God has a plan for us all, but I truly believe that he has a special plan for both you and Malachi. Stay faithful and blessed
Mother's Day
Malachi Mother's Day was full of mixed emotions. I looked fward to being able to finally celebrate Mother's Day with my little handsome boy in my arms, but you're in Jesus' arms instead. I woke up fighting back tears because I just didn't feel like hearing people remind me that I'm your mommy anyways...I know. I got up and dedicated my day to you. I went and took pictures, went to the park and to dinner. It turned out to be a beautiful day. Yes I miss you every second of every day, but God is truly strengthening me. I love you so much Malachi.
